Chapter 13: Chapter 13- Gale Sword

Well, in any case, it was a good thing that he can earn mischief points by levelling up too. This gave him an additional method of earning mischief points in the future.

Now that he has accumulated some mischief points, it was time for him to buy something.

Yang Chen took his time and deliberated over what to buy. He had 900 points with him, so he could even buy some Mid Tier Earth Grade battle skills.

As Amon had mentioned before, the higher the tier of the battle skill, the more power it can display. If he could buy an attack skill here, then along with his [Burst Steps] skill, wouldn't he be able to fight the Demonic Beasts more efficiently?

The reason why Yang Chen was not instantly transacting the points for a skill, was because the sword in his hand had almost reached the end of its lifespan. The blade of the sword had become dull, it had many dings and cracks and would not doubt break in the next fight.

Perhaps a blacksmith might be able to refine it and bring it back to life; however, where would he find a blacksmith? Therefore Yang Chen had no choice but to consider buying a better weapon.

The steel sword in his hand was a cheap weapon after all, the fact that it had allowed him to come this far and kill so many demonic beasts were already doing more than what he could ask for.

After weighing the importance of the two, Yang Chen finally decided to go with purchasing a weapon. In any case, even if he bought a powerful battle skill, he would have to practice it over and over again before it can become useful.

However, a weapon would instantly allow him to increase his strength. Plus it was far too dangerous and bothersome to face demonic beasts without any weapon.

Now that he had made up his mind, Yang Chen asked Amon to bring out a list of weapons that he could buy for his current points.

Seeing how that this annoying mascot of ademon did not make a snide remark this time, he believed that he made a right choice by buying a weapon.

"Host is currently a Seven Star Battle Apprentice, he would need to fight stronger monsters than the Crimson Jackals who are equivalent to Six Star battle apprentice to progress. Hence he needs a strong weapon that can pierce their hides without the blade becoming dull. Here are some of the weapons you can choose from…"

Amon opened a list that displayed the different weapons he can buy.

Sharp Sword, Shiny Axe, Longsword… numerous weapons came into his view. Yang Chen scrolled through them one by one. The list was filtered from cheapest to priciest hence it started from the ordinary 100 points weapons and slowly increased in quality and price as he scrolled down.

Finally, after glossing through the list for a while, his gaze landed on a sword called the Gale Sword. It was exactly 900 points and was at the top of its class.

What's more, it even bestowed a skill to its user. A skill bestowed by a weapon was different from a battle skill in that it didn't need to be trained in. One could display its power just by inserting some battle energy into it.

However, unlike the battle skill, the skill a weapon bestows has its limitations in that it cannot get any more powerful than what it already is. That is to say, even if Yang Chen practised it numerous times, the might of the skill would remain the same.

Apart from that, it also had a skill cooldown which limited its usage.

The Gale Sword was no doubt the best choice out of all the options; however what made Yang Chen perplexed was why was a powerful sword that was graded Two Star in the shop, be listed for only 900 Mischief Points?

From what Amon explained, the grade of a weapon and how much it costs, was directly related to how many stars it had. A weapon with one or few stars represented that the weapon was ordinary and cheap whereas, a weapon with numerous stars made it extraordinary and costly.

With the points he currently had, Yang Chen could only dream of purchasing a weapon above one star. Nonetheless, the Gale Sword listed in the shop, was clearly a two star sword yet it was only 900 points.

There has to be something unusual about the sword for it to be this cheap despite it being a two star.

"Am I missing something?" Yang Chen muttered and carefully observed the description of the sword.

After a while, his eyes involuntarily swept towards Amon who lazily leaning back with his hands behind his head. Seeing that unconcealed smirk that was hanging around the corner of his mouth, Yang Chen realised that this guy definitely knew something.

Amon claimed that he was the consciousness of the Greedvil system, then doesn't it mean that he knew the inside and out of everything that was a part of the system including the [Shop]?

"Out with it, what are you concealing from me?" Yang Chen demanded.

"Kukuku… I thought that the host was about to purchase that sword. What is it, have you decided otherwise? The sword is two stars you know, you cannot buy it for this many points, this is basically a bargain" Amon grinned, a deceptive light shining in its eyes.

This bastard!! He was trying to tempt him to buy the sword. Yang Chen extended his hands and tried to grab the devil only to realise that his hand simply passed through it as if Amon was some kind of hologram.

"Fufufu… host cannot touch me, it is useless to release your anger at me" the grin on the tiny demon's face deepened.

Realising that he was unable to do anything to Amon, Yang Chen's frustration increased.

"If you are the consciousness of the system, then tell me why this sword costs so less even though it is a two star weapon?" he pointed at the fellow and bombarded him with facts.

"Kfufufu… Amon is willing to help... if the host requests politely and say please that is".

This bastard was enjoying his plight.

Request politely? My ass. He wasn't going to bow down before the other party fixed their attitude towards him. Since that was the case, Yang Chen glared at Amon and stopped bothering with the latter.
